Seneca High School business teacher Brenda Martin-Lee is investing in her career and her students’ futures through her Next Gen Personal Finance fellowship.
Martin-Lee was one of 24 teachers selected out of more than 200 applicants nationwide to attend the Next Gen Personal Finance Summer Institute that took place June 24 through June 27.
Soon after the 2017–2018 school year came to a close, Martin-Lee packed her bags and was on a flight to Palo Alto, Calif. Throughout the program, she learned various training methods to enhance communication with her students to get them engaged in personal finance conversations as a means of bouncing thoughts off of one another.
